“Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret is very special.” —Amy Poehler (Vulture)
“Generations of teenage girls have grown up reading the tales of teenage angst told by beloved author Judy Blume.” —Mashable
Margaret Simon, almost twelve, has just moved from New York City to the suburbs, and she’s anxious to fit in with her new friends. When she’s asked to join a secret club she jumps at the chance. But when the girls start talking about boys, bras, and getting their first periods, Margaret starts to wonder if she’s normal. There are some things about growing up that are hard for her to talk about, even with her friends. Lucky for Margaret, she’s got someone else to confide in . . . someone who always listens.

Editorial Review
A beloved coming-of-age story from the equally beloved author Judy Blume,
Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret is as relevant and memorable today as it was in 1970 when it was first released.
Judy Blume, the author of such bestsellers as Summer Sisters and The Edge of Seventeen, is revered as one of the most loved writers of relatable middle-grade and young-adult fiction. Her stories are a trove of preteen angst and Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret is no exception. Margaret Simon is an almost 12-year-old sixth grader who has just moved from New York City to the suburbs of New Jersey. Raised by Christian and Jewish parents, she sets out to explore her religious identity as she grapples with getting her first bra, menstruation and making new friends. As Margaret's family goes through their issues, the story unfolds in deeply relatable, funny and moving ways.
More than 50 years after the book's release, the film adaptation of Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret, from Lionsgate, directed by Kelly Fremon Craig, is being released in 2023. The film stars Rachel McAdams as Margaret's mother, Barbara Simon; Kathy Bates as her paternal Grandmother, Sylvia Simon; Benny Safdie as her father, Herb Simon; and Abby Ryder Fortson as Margaret.
Margaret's relationships with characters like Laura Danker, Moose, Gretchen, and Nancy Wheeler make this story a beloved tale of the first times, angst, loneliness, and innocence that comes with adolescence. This audiobook, narrated by Laura Hamilton, is the ideal way to introduce this story to a new generation needing Judy Blume's brilliance.
